I Love You, Beth Cooper (review)
Though he’s never so much as spoken to the poor girl before, nerd announces during his high-school valedictorian speech that he ‘loves’ the ‘hottest’ girl in school. In the real world, this would be called an act of passive-aggressive behavior by an antisocial creep…
screencap Friday: what the flick? #79
Friday fun! Here’s a screen capture from one of the DVDs in my collection (and it’s definitely from a movie, not a TV show). Guess the movie for fun and, well, fun. No prizes, just bragging rights. But hey: one guess per comment — no fair hogging all the guesses.

trailer break: ‘Jennifer’s Body’ redband trailer
Take a break from work: watch a trailer… (If this disappears from YouTube, watch it here.) All the fanboys are in a tizzy over this one, because apparently Megan Fox is so hot that they’d still fuck her even if it meant she’d kill them before they were even finished. That’s messed up, guys. What … more…
